My husband made this for dinner. The
mangos he purchased were bad, so we
used mandarin oranges. Still very
good. We love the ginger dressing
too. Next time, I think we may add
some toasted almonds. It also tasted great on day 2.

We loved this recipe. I don't know who took the time to put the dressing together, but it's great. We used ripe nectarines instead of the mango, which worked out fine (there weren't any ripe mangoes available). There was literally nothing left. And we ALWAYS have leftovers. Highly recommended.

OK, this is about my 4th or 5th time to make these and my 3rd review. I REALLY like them :) The last two times I've done as other reviewers have suggested and wrapped everything up in rice paper wrappers. I just made them for dinner tonight and made a couple of substitutions: I always just poach two chicken breasts and shred them up; I used lime ponzu and veg oil to dress the chicken and used slivers of red bell pepper because I was out of cucumber. So delicious! This is SUCH a great summer recipe - it's 110 degrees today, so I'm chilling the rolls and the sauce for a refreshing dinner. Aahhh.

I was looking for a recipe where I could use some leftover, grilled, Asian pork tenderloin. This sounded like a great recipe to use. Other than substituting pork for the chicken, I followed the recipe exactly. My husband and I both thought that this was fantastic, and we'd make it again in a heartbeat. We agree with other reviewers that the dressing is fabulous. It was a wonderful dish for a very hot, steamy New England evening.

Whole family loved this! I would probably try both the soy dressing and the lime vinaigrette with less oil. I only put 1/4 cup in the soy dressing and I think it would be fine w/o it.
Might try it is a regular salad, as the the wraps were hard to eat.

FANTASTIC - dressing
is to die for,
delicious mix of
flavors. That said,
even if you're
starting with
leftover chicken and
rice, this is not a
workday meal. The
sauces, the
chopping..... Have
served these
completely assembled
on a 3-tier platter
at a buffet.
Beautiful
presentation - all
gone in 10 minutes.

This is an excellent recipe.My guests loved it. The dressing is awesome! I served it as a "make your own salad" with mesclun instead of trying to stuff all those yummy ingredients in a small bibb lettuce leaf.

I reviewed this recipe before but only made the dressing. Last night I made the entire recipe and it blew us away! This is better than any lettuce wrap we've ordered in any restaurant. Next time I will probably not worry about cutting everything in matchsticks and will just dice, unless I'm trying to impress company or something. Great recipe!!
